AAUW has been empowering women as individuals and as a community since 1881. For more than 130 years, we have worked together as a national grassroots organization to improve the lives of millions of women and their families.

We raise awareness and provide research on a range of issues: the gender pay gap; sexual harassment in schools; the few women in STEM careers among others. To see the full extent of our national programs research, please go to http://www.aauw.org/what-we-do/research/
